Checking Transmission/Hydraulic Oil Level

Operate engine at approximately 1000 rpm for at least one minute. Stop engine and wait an additional three minutes before checking oil level.

NOTE: Oil temperature should be approximately 45° C. See Changing Display Functions, in the Controls and Instruments section to determine oil temperature.

Tractor should be on level ground with hitch in the lowered position and engine stopped when checking oil level.

Sight glass observations will be significantly higher with hot oil temperatures and lower with cold oil.

IMPORTANT: Oil level above the top mark on sight glass can result in power loss and heat generation during transport.

Observe oil level in sight glass (A). Oil level should be between the marks on the glass. Optimum level is at the top mark.

If oil level is below the lower mark, remove filler cap (B) and add hydraulic oil.
